Expand your network, meaningfully.

As the industry grows, it’s increasingly important for you to harness only the most efficient opportunities to expand your business’ reach. NCIA’s new Industry Socials were designed to meet the demand for more meaningful, quality networking opportunities in new cities and emerging markets nationwide. Touring the West Coast in January, Industry Socials are bound to be the premier opportunity for cannabis professionals to harness NCIA’s extensive national network by creating meaningful connections with each other in a fun, relaxed cocktail-hour setting.

Registration is complimentary for members and 25% off for non-members (until December 4)

One of the many benefits of NCIA membership is complimentary access to all 35 of our regional networking events, including the new Industry Socials. Even better, depending on your membership level, you can grant up to five of your colleagues complimentary access as well.

If you’re an NCIA member and you aren’t taking the opportunity to attend these events, it’s money left on the table.

If you’re not yet an NCIA member, you can take 25% off your registration by registering between November 27 and December 4. Even better, if you join NCIA before November 28, you can take advantage of NCIA’s extended Cyber Monday sale, take 20% off your annual membership and get complimentary access to all 35 of our regional networking events!

Connect and learn from other industry professionals

Across the board, experts agree that people with the most connections are the most successful. In our industry, connections can help you stay current on the latest industry trends, gain insights into market forecasts, find solutions to shared challenges, and stay motivated.

As the largest industry trade association, representing 1,700+ businesses, NCIA serves as the networking nexus for the industry. We know that 70 percent of the individuals who attend NCIA events have executive level decision-making authority and 30 percent have heavy decision-making influence. This means that the caliber of the meaningful connections you will make have the potential to benefit your business in very real ways, and quickly. You never know what you might learn from other professionals in your area: find out new solutions to shared challenges, learn about deals that haven’t been publicized, get the latest tips, trends and techniques and build your shared-knowledge community.

Strengthen your business and our industry

This January, NCIA is thrilled to be cultivating community in new cities and markets like Salt Lake City and Las Vegas, along with growing communities like Seattle, Portland, OR and Phoenix. After all, we know that your business and our industry are only as strong as the connections we make. In fact, all event revenues support the work NCIA is doing to lobby on behalf of your business on Capitol Hill and to build public support for the cannabis industry. This makes NCIA events uniquely positioned as delivering both B2B connectivity and political influence at the same time.

Lastly, but certainly not least, at Industry Socials you can expect hors d’oeuvres, live local music, classic games, and drinks at a cash bar all in a relaxed, cocktail-hour setting. Join us to cultivate community in your city – registration for the West Coast Tour: Industry Socials is now open! Non-members take 25% off between November 27 – December 4.
